5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing album, gets better with repeat listens!, January 25, 2006

I first heard Mexican Institute of Sound on KCRW here in Los Angeles, and thought "what a great sound" - it felt both nostalgic and futuristic at the same time. Sort of like Esquivel meets Nortec Collective, although that's not necessarily the best comparison. Needless to say, I've played this album for quite a few friends and they're all now hooked too. This is definitely an album that gets better and better with repeat listens - well worth picking up.

I stumbled across the band's MySpace profile and heard a snippet of one of their songs -- after a minute of listening to a clip, I came immediately to Amazon to buy the CD. I've been playing it nearly nonstop since it arrived, and it gets better with each listen. Definitely check it out -- the infectious grooves are perfect for shaking you out of the winter blahs.

I picked this up whilst on holiday in Mexico as a recommendation,in this months Songlines magazine its highlighted as highly rated and thats how I feel about IMS, everyone I play it to thinks the same. Mexican Indie at its best.
